They similarly showed that mtDNA activates white blood cells through the PRR known as toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9 normally senses bacterial DNA) and its downstream kinases.
A new report in Nature Biotechnology shows that a pattern recognition receptor (PRR) can be transferred between two plant families, conferring broad-spectrum bacterial resistance. a pattern ...
